This area is NOT for requests.

Here is your DIY though.

1. Get under your car.

2. Remove the wiring harness that snaps into fog lights.

3. Remove Fog Lights.

Done.

There is 2 nuts on each, 10mm if I remember. When trying to loosen them you will probably just break the stud off. So be sure you dont want your fogs.

You're kidding, right? Just like Ericy321 and REDZMAN said...

1.) Lay down
2.) Look at bottom of car
3.) Prepare 10mm socket and ratchet.
4.) Remove two bolts.
5.) Unplug harness
6.) Remove light from the back

You really couldn't figure that out? And learn to post in the right section. Read the rules and use your brain. We ALL had to learn to do things the same way. You can ask in the shoutbox, you can ask in general performance, or you can ask your eyes to look at it and ask your brain to think about it. DIY section is for posting Do it Yourselfs. Next time, if you need help, post in the right place. Meanwhile, read all the stickies and such that tell you not to do the wrong thing.

EDIT! My mistake, on my foglights they are 5/16 nuts. They have likely been replaced since I don't think SAE is often used anywhere but the US, but my error anyways. Also, the foglights pull out from the front, not the back.

come on guys, relax. he's young (19) and wanting to work on his car, he's just new to the scene. Help him out.

Original Poster: it's fairly easy to do.. the wiring that goes to the foglights is a simple wiring harness that unplugs. Loosen the bolts from behind and they'll pop right out. Shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes. Jack your car up if you feel better about it, slide under the front bumper, and remove the bolts, then unplug the harness

Please post DIY requests in the DIY forum in the proper thread.
